Premier League explain why Benjamin Sesko goal was allowed to stand against Liverpool amid handball claim
"Man United raced into the lead after just six minutes with Matheus Cunha marking his return from injury with a goal. Less than ten minutes later, Man United were celebrating again after Sesko had bundled the ball over the line after Bruno Fernandes' cushioned header had taken a deflection off Freddie Woodman before hitting the Slovenia international."
"Liverpool trailed 2-0 at the break but pulled one back early in the second half thanks to a fine run and finish from Dominik Szoboszlai and then equalised through Cody Gakpo."
"Slot's side arrived in Manchester missing a number of senior players, including Mohamed Salah, Alisson Becker and Alexander Isak. I don't think, in general, it is a surprise that after a win we pick up injuries."
Man United took an early lead with goals from Matheus Cunha and Sesko, the latter's goal confirmed by VAR despite handball appeals. Liverpool, missing key players, managed to equalize with goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo. Head coach Arne Slot expressed concerns over injuries affecting the squad, particularly the absence of Mohamed Salah and Alisson Becker. The match showcased the challenges faced by both teams, with Slot hoping for player recoveries in the coming week.
